A joyous ride advocating for safer streets for kids - because safe streets for kids are safe streets for all!

Apart from being a super colourful, fun and joyful event, why should you join Kidical Mass Glasgow? We don’t know about you, but we believe...

🏫 Every child should be able to cycle to school safely. Yet we lack adequate, well-connected cycling infrastructure to make this happen.

🌬 Every child deserves to breathe in clean air. Yet, 93% of Glasgow schools are in areas that violate WHO guidelines on safe air to breathe. Yikes!

🏙 Every child should be safe in our public spaces. Yet, do you feel comfortable letting your child or young person enjoy our public spaces independently?

If you would also like to see our public spaces being designed to keep our kids safe, healthy and happy then join us for Kidical Mass Glasgow on 13 September 2025.

We meet at 11.30am in Queens Park, Victoria Road entrance and the ride starts at 12pm. We will finish back in Queens Park at 1pm. After the ride we will relax in the park for lunch. No food will be provided so we recommend you bring your own snacks/picnic or make use of the many fab cafes that are nearby.

The route is roughly 3.5 kilometres and all bikes are welcome on the ride including balance bikes. The only exception is bikes with stabilisers. We recommend bringing the littlest kids along in bike seats, trailers or cargo bikes. Women on Wheels have bike seats, trailers and a cargo bike available to loan. Please get in touch as soon as possible if you would like organise a loan. We will struggle to accommodate for any last minute loans. To organise a loan, please email Katherine on families@womenonwheels.org.uk.

To help us gauge numbers and for funding purposes, we please ask that you sign up in advance. You can sign up yourself or your family (parents/carers and kids).

The event is organised by Sunny Cycles, Parents for Future Scotland and Women on Wheels.
